Modernizing From Legacy EC2 instances to Event-Driven AWS Airflow Pipeline
Water and environmental engineering firms often struggle with legacy infrastructure: monitoring and forecasting systems for desalination plants rely on tightly coupled, manually orchestrated processes. Relying on file-based, manual data processing on isolated EC2 instances makes it difficult to scale or replay historical data, limiting forecasting capabilities and operational visibility.

The Challenge
A leading Water and Environment Management Enterprise needed to scale their forecasting and optimization capabilities , but found their legacy EC2 desalter monitoring system was not scalable for advanced analytics.

Manually Orchestrated Bottlenecks

The reliance on file-based processing and manual orchestration created a rigid system. It lacked reliable reprocessing or backfill capabilities, crippling the ability to run scenario simulations or goal-seek optimizations.

Disconnected IoT Data

Critical telemetry, such as temperature and device conditions pulled from Zoho IoT, was difficult to integrate at scale. The tightly coupled architecture prevented seamless, automated ingestion, risking upstream data delays and incomplete historical records.

The Solution
Entrans delivered a modernized, centralized architecture, shifting the enterprise to an event-driven, cloud-native pipeline using AWS Airflow.

Automated Zoho IoT Ingestion

We developed event-driven pipelines managed by AWS Airflow to automatically ingest raw sensor and temperature feeds directly from Zoho APIs, removing the need for manual oversight.

Centralized Data Lake Architecture

We built a scalable, cloud-native storage foundation that houses both raw and curated datasets, eliminating the limitations of tightly coupled legacy EC2 instances.

Advanced Forecast Enablement

The modernized pipeline integrates robust forecast model training to accurately predict critical desalination parameters and continuously monitor system health.

Goal-Seek Simulation Engine

We introduced dynamic scenario simulation capabilities, allowing engineers to run valid goal-seek optimizations for desalter performance without relying on file-based workflows.

Automated Reporting and API Layer

The system ensures complete operational visibility by systematically generating reliable reports and exposing curated datasets through a highly available dashboard and API interface.

The Outcome
The enterprise is now able to achieve highly reliable desalination forecasting and system monitoring. Automated Zoho IoT ingestion and cloud-native architecture have dramatically improved operational visibility and scaling capabilities.

100% automated event-driven data ingestion from Zoho IoT

99% reliability in historical data reprocessing and backfilling

40% improvement in forecasting and goal-seek optimization speed

We have been working with Entrans for the last two years and they have played a key role in building our solution. Their expertise and professionalism were evident throughout the development cycle, and we were very pleased with the final product. They have shown enormous skill and vast domain knowledge and their IT expertise is reliable and trustworthy. We would recommend Entrans for anyone looking for quality IT services, delivered in a professional manner
